Oh man! Sorry to be one to tell you this, but Cloud chasing boat has sailed. That's out of fashion and flavor chasing is in. Even people doing dragon coil is backing off since it kills the taste. Running 0.3 with VG and puffing huge cloud? boring. old news.
Why people chaining to cotton? Flavor! That's where it is at. You got some $$$ to throw at this? Find a good setup and drip some grand master, you will be saying "this is the [moderated]" :D

Heavy vaper is better achieved using high VG mixes. PG tends to produce better flavor and VG produces more vapor. 50/50 mixes are popular among those who prefer a mix.

That said, there's an irritation factor associated with high volume vapor, just as there is with tobacco in higher strengths. You might favor VG for less throat hit and blend in some PG if you want more flavor. Finding the sweet spot is somewhere in the mix of the two.

Totally can't argue with that, was just clarifying the type of clouds. lmao. And agree absolutely that it is the best tank option for non builders. Close to an rba, but can't compare to a great rba with an excellent build, vaped at 30-50 watts or so. But does illustrate what could be possible, and is a great functional worry free tank especially for new vapers and those having problems and issues of atty's not delivering the goods. The Nautilus delivers. I bought one merely to try out so that I could validate my recommendation of this tank. Haven't vape a full tank on my own Naut, but it is growing on me, lol, just to many other better mods and rbas setup within reach.

I'm actually on my second flavor on the Nautilus; My original plan was to finish up the first juice and try my hand at a microcoil in the Nautilus, but unfortunately, life intervened and it got pushed to the back burner for a few more days.

I suppose you can go cloud chasing if you want, but personally I'll stick to chasing a great vape. Cloud chasing is a lousy vape IMO.

You need to understand that an e-cig is not a hookah. They do not function the same way, and the results are completly different. You also need to understand that there are reasons that advanced methods are called advanced methods. Without the necessary foundation your chances of success are nil.

There is no point in telling you how to get a huge cloud yet because you wouldn't understand anyway. It's not about using this device or that, it's about how you use it.

100%.

Im blowing some decent clouds. Like the others have said before me, know what you are getting into before you start. Im 6 months into this and I still have a lot to learn. Blowing clouds may look cool but taste bland. Im vaping on a 28 gauge kanthal, .8 ohm dual micro coil, with a Sony 30A battery on a bed of cotton, and the flavor is outstanding. I used to vape .5 & below but it takes away from the taste. Again do your homework and start up slowly and move up when you feel comfy in what you are doing. Happy Vaping!

I agree with everyone above for sure. What is more important that a particular mod/tank combo is the juice mix. A higher VG% will give you a bigger cloud. Assuming you are matching a LR atty with a reasonable voltage level, like a 1.8ohm with a 3.7v eGo or similar. One of the challenges is getting good vapor from a low voltage device. Mix will help with that, but you could definitely burn if you try too much wattage with a thicker juice like VG.
